    CASE SUMMARY In this motor vehicle accident case, the court acquitted accused Sundarrajan of charges under IPC Sections 279 (rash driving) and 304(A) (death by negligence). Though the court found a fatal collision occurred on August 16, 2021, where a motorcycle rear-ended a two-wheeler causing the victim's death, the government failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused was driving recklessly or negligently. Critically, the two eyewitnesses did not testify that the accused caused the collision—they only described the accident itself. The court concluded that insufficient evidence linked the accused's alleged rash/negligent driving to the victim's death, warranting his acquittal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
